He is a founding member of the Excellence Centre awarded the «Emerging Regional Centres of Excellence” (ERCE) label by the Committee for Developing Countries of the European Mathematics Society, for the period 2020-2016. He is an elected member of the «International Statistical Institute» (ISI) since 2013, and a Member of the French- Moroccan Inter-University Joint Committee. Prior to that, he was the director of “Ecole Nationale des Sciences Appliquées” of Marrakesh. Pr. Ouknine served as a member of the scientic boards of multiple organisations such as “the Hassan II Academy of Sciences and technology”; “Centre National de Recherche Scientique et Technique” (CNRST) Morocco; ”Centre International de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées” (CIMPA) France; “Excellence Centre in Mathematics and Computer Science” CEA-MITIC, Senegal. As a researcher, visiting professor or associate member, Prof. Ouknine has visited several universities and research centers abroad. Youssef Ouknine has also taught several postgraduate courses and has supervised theses in several African countries (Senegal, Ivory Coast). Mathematician, Prof. Ouknine, has devoted his research to stochastic analysis and probability theory and their applications. His work has focused on stochastic calculus, Optimal stopping, Malliavin’s calculus, stochastic dierential equations (forward and backward) and fractional stochastic calculus. Stochastic nance is currently one of his research concerns.
